D'Accord Music Software Debuts iChords Transcription Software

May 24, 2007

D'Accord Music Software announces an innovative software - iChords - that recognizes and presents chords from any MP3, WMA files or CDs.

According to a group of computer music researchers, hearing a song and writing out chords is challenging enough for experienced musicians, so imagine how difficult it is for a computer? While difficult, they agreed it was not impossible. These researchers took the challenge, and after more than three years of research and development, created a software that identifies chords from any audio source. Chords be identified in any song without having to search for tablatures and sheet music.

Musicians also save time when transcribing "by ear." iChords makes fast and harmonic transcriptions. The software is easy-to-use; after opening a song file it automatically processes and extracts the chords.

iChords offers additional features beyond chord transcription:

  • iChord displays the chord being played at the moment as well as the next one
  • For each chord, it presents fingering, notation or intervals
  • Users can control the tempo according to their skills, playing slower or faster
  • Four different guitar view modes are offered, including one for left-handed players
  • Lrics can be added and chords can be transposed and printed together with chord diagrams
  • Chords can be exported to create a personal song library
